Thank you so much! I really love different styles and different leathers. And that is the reason for the broad range of brands. And I just love some brands, and then I try to get a piece from them that I just love to have, so that adds to it.Julie, I just found your collection. Wow, you have great taste! I like all the different brands and they seem like they will still be in style for years to come.
I must admit that I did use the bag this often until now as I tend to switch my bags rather often. But I think the bag is rather delicate (indeed I was surprised how delicate), so I will probably not put too much and too heavy stuff in it. I love the style and I am VERY careful with my bags, so I hope it will hold up. FINGERS CROSSED [emoji6]How are you liking your Ashby? It was my first Burberry, I've now had two, and they both wore holes in the canvas at the bottom corners the bags within a year. They replaced the first one, but I'm still really disappointed. A sales rep at the store actually told me I was carrying too much in my bag and that's why it was fraying!
BEAUTIFUL.[emoji171] I don't have any Burberry, but would love to add a piece to my collection. I agree, I think this will be a piece that you will love forever. Also, so very sorry for your loss but what a wonderful way to commemorate a loved one.Hello fellow Purselovers,
Another update from me: I finally added my first Burberry, which is also a very special Bag to me:
My grandmother recently passed away, and my mother and me inherited some money from her. We made a pact to spend a portion of that money each on a nice and timeless Designer piece that can accompany us for a long time and remind us of that very special person. As we wanted something somehow "matching" and also something timeless that will not be out of fashion in a year or two, we decided to get a Burberry piece each.
While my mother decided on a classic wool/silk shawl, I got myself the Ashby Medium Hobo in black (which luckily was also 30% off at the online store we ordered from.
I am positive that I will still love this bag in many years, it suits my current style and will also not look strange on me when I grow older (I am currently 36 years old).View attachment 3607634
